LOL, I'm just sick to hear almost every season "70's are back, (any brand) return us to 54th Studio", "80's return (again and again and--)", and i got tired to hear about mad men last a/w. I like vintage or inspiration of another centuries, but mostly atemporal (not basics only) clothes

I'm torn on the sheer maxi; I think it's kind of nice, very different, almost over-the-top, and quite interesting. But on the other hand, how could you pull it off? Where would you even wear it? Doesn't make sense to me, but I applaud any who gives it an honest shot.
Also, I'm getting a bit sick of skinny jeans; I know, I'm the devil, burn me at the stake. But no, I'm really sick of people thinking it's the ONLY pants out there and so they buy a ton and wear them all the time. Please, please, PLEASE learn that you can wear other pants [and skirts... and dresses... and shorts...] and look good, too.

So agree with the skinny jeans. It starts to piss me off (or whatever.....it's other people's problem what they wear, no reason to get emotional ). But it starts to bore me too. It's like people don't realise that there are so many kinds of pants. Everyone wears skinny jeans with classic t shirt plus leather jacket and the result is that everyone looks the same and boring.
And also agree with opinion that skirts and dresses are very underrated...People don't realise how amazing they can look and are mostly very comfy, too
Have to say Frenchie vintage look seems also boring to me. I remember rocking it 2 or 3 years ago. The problem with that look is that it never surprises you. It's same all the time and it becomes hopelessly boring

I'm a silly bean when it comes to skirts; I want to give them a shot, but every time I do, I feel so out of place so I wimp out and get some other pants instead. :p
It's just the whole self-conscious crap-- I'll get it over it someday, soon, hopefully... ;3
Yeah, every one keeps wearing the same outfits lately, it drives me nuts. Stop with the skinnies! Wear high-waist slacks! They're gorg and comfy- I'm really getting into 'em lately.
Ugh, same! I saw that Frenchie vintage look two/three years ago and it's still around, everywhere. I even spotted an old mag the other day from spring 2009 that had that style all over it and I was laughing to myself.
Overall, yes, very boring.

i don't think skinny jeans should be considered as trend.... its just jeans, a bit more feminine, but still just jeans.... i want to be able to find nice pair of them even when they are passe or whatever.

as for dresses and skirts, i wear them all the time, i have only few pairs of pants and over hundred dresses.... they are so easy to combine with jackets and necklaces and socks and flats....

I think the trendiness with skinny jeans comes in when it's all everybody wears, ever, even if it's not right for them. It was the same with low-rise bootcut jeans in the early '00s and acid-washed jeans in the '80s. They were all just jeans, but no one would say they weren't trends. They were everywhere, pretty much to the exclusion of all else.

Even though I'm always bitching about them, I don't actually hate skinny jeans themselves. What I do hate is that it's the only kind of jean anyone wears anymore. If you go someplace where the demographic skews young (20s on down), everybody is more or less wearing the same uniform. I get tired of looking at it. (And of course it is no one else's responsibility to dress in a way that doesn't offend my senses, but that doesn't make it any more pleasant to look at all the time.) I don't want skinny jeans to go away, but I guess I don't understand why no one ever buys other styles, too, once in a blue moon.

This! Much more eloquent than how I phrased it. :p
I agree 1000000000% (:

That's very well put cheepmunk and true. I've noticed that trends in pants (I mean trends regarding fit, not wash nor color etc) don't come and go as quickly as they do with other items. You're right about people not saying it's a trend when it is, maybe it's because finding good pants are harder (at least for me) and we tend to see them as base instead of what can define your look.

I don't care what everyone here says, I'll wear skinny jeans for the rest of my live because
1) They're the most flattering jeans style on me. Why wear something that doesn't suit me and my style just for the heck of not getting boring?
2) Skinny jeans go best with high heels.
3) I f'ing hate bootcuts.
4) Flared and baggy jeans aren't that great either. Straight-legged jeans are ok, but they only look good with sneakers, IMO.

Don't get me wrong, I'm just as sick of 95% of all the girls between 15 and 35 wearing dark blue skinnies, UGGs, black Zara coats and the Longchamp Pliage bag and all looking the same. But that's the outfit/style as a whole that is boring and has nothing to do with the style/fit of the jeans.
For a while I was hoping for women to start wearing more skirts again but now seeing all these hippie/vintage girls in their unflattering flea market crap makes me 10x more sick than people wearing simple and classic jeans (as long as they're not three sizes too small, of course).
